Material: sheepskin, patinated aluminum

—

Having analysed the traditional use of natural materials, the designer has explored alternatives to the use of materials of animal origin, such as sheepskin. Even though these substances are a by-product of the meat industry, the ethical dilemma of using them still exists, and objects made with them retain the hunter's collective sense of guilt. In the face of the Anthropocene era, the author’s goal is to glorify and honor the end of life in the best and most beautiful possible form of supposed “reincarnation” as if standing on a pedestal.
